Antimicrobial resistance in the intensive care unit is an ongoing global healthcare concern associated with high mortality and morbidity rates and high healthcare costs. Select groups of bacterial pathogens express different mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance. Clinicians face challenges in managing patients with multidrug-resistant bacteria in the form of a limited pool of available antibiotics, slow and potentially inaccurate conventional diagnostic microbial modalities, mimicry of non-infective conditions with infective syndromes, and the confounding of the clinical picture of organ dysfunction associated with sepsis with postoperative surgical complications such as hemorrhage and fluid shifts.

Emergence of drug-induced antimicrobial resistance (AMR) forms a crippling health and economic crisis worldwide, causing high mortality from otherwise treatable diseases and infections. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) has significantly augmented detection of culture independent microbes, potential AMR in pathogens and elucidation of mechanisms underlying it. Here, we review recent findings of AMR evolution in pathogens aided by integrated genomic investigation strategies inclusive of bacteria, virus, fungi and AMR alleles.

Surveillance Epidemiologique et Gestion des Alertes (SEGA) One Health network, Indian Ocean Commission, Ebene, Mauritius.

Introduction: This study aims at determining the pattern of antibiotic consumption and resistance in Mauritius, a tropical island in the Indian Ocean.

Methodology: Antibiotic consumption was measured in kilograms of purchased antibiotics and also in defined daily dose (DDD) in different health institutions from 2015 to 2017. Data on antibiotic resistance was collected at the Central Health Laboratory (CHL) at Victoria Hospital and at Jeetoo Hospital Laboratory, where antibiotic sensitivity testing is done for all public health institutions.
